    2015 CX-5, 105k miles. Is my transmission done?

    The dealer said there were no codes. They said they updated the transmission module and vehicle module software. All I keep hearing is new transmission. I started reading on how some CX5's were going into "limp mode" which sounds very much like what happened to mine, and the fixes were just...

    2015 CX-5, 105k miles. Is my transmission done?

    Hmm, really? this is if I need a rebuilt one from the dealership? I got word from the dealer and they want to put in a new transmission for $6500! A remanufactured one would still come out to $6k. What would I tell MazdaUSA to ask for help on this?

    2015 CX-5, 105k miles. Is my transmission done?

    I took it to a different shop because my dad insisted he knows a guy *super eye roll again. But for this guy, the transmission worked like normal for a few minutes and then went back to the jerking thing. So he said he's thinking it might be an electrical issue with the computer not...

    2015 CX-5, 105k miles. Is my transmission done?

    wouldn't engine related issues bring up a check engine light though? i'm going to pick it up and take it to a different place this afternoon for a second look.

    2015 CX-5, 105k miles. Is my transmission done?

    Talked to him again. Clarified that he will rebuild it himself. He said there was no code when he scanned. So no check engine light and no other code from the scan tool. He's basing it on what happened when he drove it. Said there's no other way to figure out than by opening it up.

    2015 CX-5, 105k miles. Is my transmission done?

    I took it to a small shop nearby just to see what the heck's going on. He called this morning and said there's something broken inside the transmission. He said he'll put in a rebuilt one and guarantee it for 1 year for 2500. Or I can find my own cheaper one and he'll put it in for $475 plus...

    2015 CX-5, 105k miles. Is my transmission done?

    no, the car acts up in both D and manual. It's just that if I put it in manual, I can stay in 1st gear to move it around. If I'm in D, it automatically tries to shift up to 2nd if I go past 10mph, and that's when the action happens. I don't remember if I was able to shift to 2nd in manual mode...

    2015 CX-5, 105k miles. Is my transmission done?

    Spent Father's Day weekend driving around some beach towns. When I was coming back home, the freeway ride was normal, nothing wrong. I exited the freeway, came to a stop light, and when I started again, the car bucked and jerked if I went over 10mph. I was able to set it to manual mode and stay...

    Trunk mounted bike rack?

    Thanks for the reply, but why? I'm trying to understand why the trunk mount isn't good? As far as the "extra dough" my twins' mom receives that and much more, so it's really not an option right now.

    Trunk mounted bike rack?

    mingm, did you ever use this with actual bikes? I'm looking to get a trunk rack as well and this is one of the few that seems to be compatible with a CX5's rear spoiler.

    Sudden loss of power or ability to shift. Manual mode display was blank

    I had to replace the battery a few months ago. Perhaps I can get it checked, though.

    2016 CX-5 Power Loss

    Any update on this? I had a similar experience with loss of power, but nothing to do with seatbelts or dings.

    Sudden loss of power or ability to shift. Manual mode display was blank

    2015 CX-5, 61k miles. This morning on the tollway, as I slowed down when reaching the tollhouse, I thought I felt as though the car was in neutral. I paid and as I tried to drive off, I had almost no reaction from the car. It felt as if I only had first gear or as if it was in neutral and was...

    OEM Aluminum Pedals

    How differently does driving on the aluminum pedals feel? Do your feet slip at all? I love the look but not the price. I'm thinking of at least getting the foot rest because I hate ruining that carpeted area with dirt and dust. I didn't understand your installation procedure clearly; is it...

    New Soul CX5. Lovin' it

    Raise the Roof(rails)! (breakn) So I'm really happy! I just got my roof rails and f/r mud guards installed. I love how the rails look, even though I'll actually only ever use them once to carry my mattress to my new place. I also like how the mudguards look. The front ones are so small and...
